A few years ago little book fell intt
our hands, recountiue tho experience 81
. certain prominent business man, from
which it appeared that. as With most
Americans, too close attention to bus,.
ness had broken his health. The doctor
said he could not live. He then st,ted
that he used certain article which
efectually cured ham. and "out of graf.
itude for his own recovery be deter.
mined to devote portion of his fortune
to spreading its merits before the world" !"
Aswe read 1t we said: This Is evi.
IDENTIFY a shrewd expression Of Q com.
mercial motive; 1t sounds we'll; Ut reads
we'll but many people will not believe
it.
Ina few years, however. that man got
famous the world over. He gave several
hundred thousand dollars to astronom.
icai research. and his name became .
household word In nearly every home
in the United States.
Hundreds Of thousands of people to.
day, without reservation, say that to
this man alone they owe their Ii YES.
Iften men are collected together the
chances are that if one man incidentally
refeys to Warmers safe cure. seven Of
them will be able to tell. from their own
experience or from the experience of
their friends. Of marvellous results which
that remedy has wrought. ;.
Nothing has ever been put On the
market. we are told, the sale Of which
has been so great and kept up 90 won
derfully, and this alone is evidence that
merit is at the bottom OF Its popul arity.
In our files we find many an adver-
tisement from this house. Some people
have believed, have used and have been
cured others have disbelieved. have
not used and died.
The manufacturers have stated, as the
result of their most careful investlga.
tions. that the condition of the kidneys
is the kew to health, and that they know
if the kidneys are maintained in health
by Warmers safe cure, 93 per cent of dis
eases would disappear.
The uric acid. or waste of the system,
left in the blood, by what may be called
constipated kidneys, blocks up the sys-

This statement made time and time
again is 80 full of sense that it is now
accepted as scientl6ctr truth by insur.
ance companies who reject millions of
risks every year If there is the least in
activity of these organs.
The public is tired Of the wrangles of
this school and of that school, and it is
quick to recognize anything that has
such conceded merit, and on this ground
alone can we account for its extraordi.

THE BABY AND TIE SOLDIERS

Rough and ready the troopers ride,
Great bearded men with swords by side:
They haFp ridden long, they have ridden
hard,
They are travel-stained and battle SCARED;
The hard ground shakes with their martial
tramp,
And coarse is the laugh of the men of the
camp.
They reach spot where mother stands,
with baby clapplng its little hands,
Laughing aloud at the gal ant sight
OF tho mounted soldiers fresh from the fight
The Captain laughs out: ''TIl give you this,
A handful of gold, your baby to kiss"
Smiles the mother; "a kiss can't be sold,
But gladly hen kiss SO dier bold"
He lifts upthe babe with manly grace,
And covers with kisses Its smiling face,
lis rosy cheeks, and its dimpled cha ms,
And it crows with delight in tn, soldier s
arms.
''Not all { r the Captain" the soldiers call;
Tho baby, we know, has a kiss for ALL"
To the soldiers breasts the baby is pressed
By the strong, rough men, and by turns ca
rcsscd;
And louder it laughs, and the mother fair
Smiles with mute jov as the kisses they share.
Just such kiss" cries one trooper grim,
when left my boy gave to him."
And just such Il kiss on the parting day
L gave to my girl as asleep she lay"
Such were the words of the soldiers brave,
And their eyes were moist as the kiss they
gave,

of the device is analogous to that Of

a plaque on which is laid the paper for

is done, the plaque vibrates under the
